   Never had a bad experience a Johnny's Tavern. Even when the place is jammed and people are waiting in line it is clear that the staff--all of the staff--are working their tails off to keep the customers satisfied. Never go there for dinner without a reservation!

   A friend and I go to Johnnie's regularly. The food never disappoints, and, importantly, the chef and staff are careful and accommodating about her specific food allergy. We also like the ambiance and the friendly and attentive servers.

   We have been to Johnny's many times and it is always excellent. Wait staff and bartenders, are very well trained and attentive. Food is always very good and reasonably priced. I wish we had a Johnny's in West Springfield.

   Nice job. Food was great. Fed 4 Men’s lacrosse players and walked out feeling the value was spot on. We’ll be going back on our visits to Amherst throughout the year.

    My favorite place for pasta/Italian at the moment. Make a reservation!! Don’t go and get annoyed when there is no seating. Bar is also hit or miss for seating. Staff was incredibly nice. Get the pasta. Try them all! Great drink menu. No pizza or fried mozzarella. Calamari was interesting. If you’re reading this (the restaurant) it was pretty soggy with all the extra sauces. Double fry that calamari and hit me with some straight up marinara. Other than that everything is always amazing. It’s crowded and busy but you are well taken care of. Staff seem to like their job! Number one recommendation is the pesto… holy sheesh. Everyone was dressed pretty casually. No sweatpants tho but lots of hats and normal clothes. Great date spot dress up feel fancy. 10/10. Just be polite. Call ahead. Make reservations!

    Always a great experience at Johnny’s! Love the burrata appetizer. Switched it up and had the kale Caesar salad with salmon for my entree and it was perfect.

    This is our second time having a fantastic experience at Johnnys Tavern. I would recommend it to everyone. We’ve loved the calamari and potstickers each time and my mom had the beet salad and loved it! We’ve been trying different dishes each time but my husband’s favorite is their fried chicken and their steak is not to be missed.

    We enjoyed our dinner very much, the soup and entrees all delicious. We requested a table away from close proximity to others and hostess graciously helped choose a table. The waitress was efficient and pleasant. Dined on the early side, the place was filling up as we left around 6:30.

    Erin picked a great table for us because I called ahead to inform her that I have a cast on my leg. Cole was Soo attentive as our waiter and conscientious of our needs. The food was great! The only problem we encountered through the dinner was the dessert. Our ricotta cheesecake was frozen solid! Cole brought it back to the kitchen for a new piece but the bottom of the cheesecake on top of the crust was frozen on this piece as well. One of us cut it into small pieces and didn’t mind it was quite cold still.

    We have been coming here for years and love it. This time everything was sub par . The food not prepared as good as usual, presentation and plating not so good, taste ok at best. Waitstaff not trained as well as they could be, phducsl presentation a bit sloppy. Was our go to place, now will think twice .unfortunate.

    Was so excited to try this restaurant based on the good reviews and often visiting Johnny's in SH. 1)it was freezing inside-like everyone eating there kept their coats on. 2) Our table was not ready at our reservation time-had to wait awhile on a Tuesday night 3) Our server was honestly one of the worst I've ever had-took forever to order our food, took 30 min to get our check to pay, and literally she came to our table twice-once to take our order (others dropped our food off), never checked on us, we had to go find her to get our check. It was my date's birthday which the hostess knew and was like I'll let your server know. Our server didn't acknowledge it once, which is fine, no need to do anything special, but then she totally ghosted us all night and the poor service just made the whole experience rough. 4)food was ok, nothing memorable 5)it was so loud in there we couldn't even talk to each other from across the table. Sadly we wont be coming back.

    Great tavern atmosphere with excellent food. We went for a Christmas Eve lunch with our adult daughter and Johnny’s Tavern was the perfect place. Rachael was great and very helpful and service was outstanding even though there were only two people working. We loved the truffle fries and all had different pasta mains. The Gnocchi were fantastic. Highly recommend Johnny’s Tavern in Amherst. Great atmosphere, fantastic food and excellent service.

    I met my friend for a pre-Christmas lunch. The restaurant was quite busy, but we didn't feel rushed. We enjoyed our lunch, topping it off with the sticky toffee pudding (with two spoons). Waitress was great, very attentive. Thank you, Johnny's for making our reunion so memorable. Happy Holidays! Marilyn Gerhard

    Waitress was energetic, cheerful But she didn't bring us bread, and we had to ask for it. 2 of had the TavernBurger and asked for rare and medium rare. They were both well done, dry. Very disappointing. Side salad nothing special.
